I stopped to count the frogs this morning, and there was an extremely tiny one (about 1cm long).

These two shots are taken at the same distance (approx 2.9m away) and cropped the same amount. The one on the left is the tiny tiny frog, and the right hand one is a regular sized Dwarf Tree Frog (approximately 3cm long).

There were 15 Eastern Dwarf Tree Frogs this morning (that I managed to count anyway).

Two tiny frogs perched vertically on a green reed. They are almost but not quite the same shade of green, and like the reed, have a white stripe down the side.

More tiny frogs this morning, including a stack of three hiding between two leaves.

Three tiny green frogs between two leaves of a reed. They are stacked head to tail. The third one (at the bottom) is hardly visible.

It was slightly warmer this morning on campus (12ºC) so some of the frogs were out (they tend not to come out when it's colder than that).

Here's one of the two I found (the other was in a bad spot, photographically).

The same frog, now shot from higher and to the left. The frog is facing obliquely right and from this angle, in the sun, looks more brown than green.

A very small frog on a guinea grass stem, shot face on. It has its legs tucked up under itself and is mostly a brownish-green.

I went back this afternoon via the spot the tiny frogs were this morning and there were two out in the open.

So here's some more Tiny Frog Thursday for you.

My morning was improved one-hundred-fold by the discovery of this tiny Eastern Dwarf Treefrog on a citrus fruit.

It was no bigger than a beetle, and almost the same colour as the unripe fruit.

A crop of the previous image to better show the tiny frog.

It is green on top, with a black stripe running along its side, through the eye and down to the nose. The legs are tucked up under it, but some of the gold colouring on the legs is visible. — A crop of the previous image to better show the tiny frog.

It is almost the same colour as the fruit and is presumably hoping not to be noticed. — A tiny green frog with black stripe through its eye and around the nose, huddled on a green citrus fruit. It is almost the same colour as the fruit and is presumably hoping not to be noticed.
